It has been a spooktastic week in P2!<\/p>\n

We completed some spooky Hallowe’en art this week.<\/p>\n

Firstly we made hallowe’en lanterns.\u00a0 This focused on our cutting skills.<\/p>\n

Then we used the outdoors to inspire some skeleton making.\u00a0 We went into the school garden and foraged for useful material which we could turn into skeletons in class.\u00a0 This was so much fun and it helped us to develop our creativity skills.\u00a0 We hope you don’t get too frightened checking out these pictures!<\/p>\n

In our Numeracy we had a chance to be the teacher.\u00a0 We did a Find It and Fix It<\/em> lesson.\u00a0 Winnie the Witch was at witch school and she was given a worksheet of addition calculations to solve.\u00a0 We had to check Winnie’s work\u00a0 for her and fix anything that she got wrong.\u00a0 We put a big version on our Maths Working Wall and used tickled pink and green for growth to help her.\u00a0 We hope Winnie will grow from her mistakes just like we do in class.<\/p>\n

For our Literacy we did a character a study from our reading books.\u00a0 We all had to choose one character from our book and draw a picture of them, then list some adjectives to describe our chosen character and say what they did in the story.\u00a0 This really helped us use our higher order thinking skills as we had to Understand<\/strong> our reading books and then Apply<\/strong> what we had found out to complete a character study.<\/p>\n

Our Alien story this week was so much fun, we had to describe what an alien would see if he landed on our planet on 5th November.\u00a0 We used our Mighty Writer to develop our story.\u00a0 Here are the star writers from this week; Kayla, Jiya and Leon.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Next week we will be writing a story about a police officer and the jobs they have to do in our community to keep us safe.\u00a0 This will be part of our Community topic and will help us answer Ibad’s pupil voice suggestion for this topic (“What are the jobs of a Police Officer?).\u00a0 Have a chat at home about the types of jobs a police officer in Livingston would need to do.<\/p>\n

As an extra try this Number Talks at home with your child.\u00a0 How many beads are there on the left hand side, how did you count them?\u00a0 Did your doubles knowledge help you at all?\u00a0 As always if you get answer and a strategy feel free to share it with me by replying to this blog.<\/p>\n

Have a lovely weekend,<\/p>\n
